MONDAY (2/18)
- Prison Break (FOX, 8pm): Tonight may be the end of the show as we currently know it. Maybe Michael can finally let go of that steely gaze now.
- Dance War (ABC, 8pm): The next Dancing with the Stars contenders will be announced during the spinoff’s season finale. Finally, a reason for me to watch.
- Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious (CW, 9pm): Robin Antin is searching for a gal to complete an entirely different musical act. With Danity Kane already taken, she had to settle for the 2nd crappiest group name available.
- My Dad is Better Than Your Dad (NBC, 9pm): “This competition series features fathers and their children in challenges that test the patriarch’s strength, intelligence and parenting skills.” Since when did NBC start stealing ideas from Nick TV?

MONDAY (2/11)
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX, 8pm): “Sarah meets a stranger (Brian Austin Green) who shares a similar past.” They were once both white rappers?
- Dance War (ABC, 8pm): “The touring company of ‘High School Musical’ performs.” The contestants, now left with inferiority complexes, are unable to go on.
- Flavor of Love (VH1, 9pm): Third season premiere. Is it a coincidence that a Flav-ex has since show up on Celebrity Rehab?
- Prison Break (FOX, 8pm): “The escape attempt is successful for some, if not all, of the escapees.” Apparently you can miss weeks of this show and not miss a thing.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, Specials, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, The Office, Ratings,
Last night’s Presidential address threw viewers and networks for a loop. Numbers were down all across the board. After piecing together the ratings, it appears ABC narrowly won with the viewers while NBC was the victor with the demos.
8pm

- Dance War (ABC, 8pm): “One contestant from the losing team is ousted after the first round of competition.” Those remaining will learn Bruno’s ‘I’m Still Standing’ routine.

- In Treatment (HBO, 9:30: Series premiere. New therapy drama airs 5x a week with a different patient every night. Apparently Gabriel Byrne can’t handle them all at once like the masterful Dr. Drew.

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Comedy, Drama, Games, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Everybody Hates Chris, Medium, Prison Break, Ratings,
It looks like the novelty of FOX’s Terminator may be starting to wear off. For the second week in a row, it was brought down by NBC’s reality lineup.
8pm
- American Gladiators (4.3/10 in 18-49) challenged 10.1 million hopefuls.

MONDAY (1/21)- Prison Break (FOX, 8pm): “T-Bag enlists Bellick to display his gladiatorial skills once again as the battle between Lechero and Sammy for control of Sona comes to a head.” If they can’t beat American Gladiators, FOX will encourage its characters fight like ‘em.
- Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann (ABC, 8pm): “Viewers cast their first vote for their favorite teams after they perform live song-and-dance routines.” They’ve finally reached the phase I actually care about.
- Wildfire (ABC Family, 9pm): Season 4 premiere. I have absolutely no idea what this show is about, but it sounds like a trashy romance novel. Oh wait - this is a family channel. Never mind.
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX, 9pm): “John and Cameron try to fit in a new school.” Is an education really the most important thing for John at this point? Shouldn’t he be honing his street smarts or something?

Monday Ratings: Howie Mandle Takes on the ‘Terminator’
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Comedy, Drama, Games, Music, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, Everybody Hates Chris, Medium, Prison Break, Ratings,
It was highly doubtful that Terminator could maintain its monster-sized numbers from Sunday, but I don’t know if many expected what happened last night. It wasn’t a group of Gladiators that brought the show down to size, but rather a comedian and his bevy of suitcase-toting ladies.
8pm
- American Gladiators (4.6/12 in 18-49) muscled in 10.7 million.
- Dance War: Bruno vs. Carrie Ann (10.5 million, 2.9/7) came in a close second.
- The Big Bang Theory* (8.2 million, 3.2/8) was up almost 2 million from last week; How I Met Your Mother* (7.3 million, 2.7/7) saw a 1 million bump.
- A new Prison Break (7.9 million, 3.3/8) gained about 700,000 from its last episode.
- About 2 million were lovin’ Everybody Hates Chris* (0.9/2); Aliens in America* (1.31, 0.5/1) didn’t fare as well.
9pm
- Deal or No Deal (15 million, 5.0/12 in 18-49) was the biggest show of the evening.
- Even Two and a Half Men* (11.5 million, 3.8/9) outperformed the futuristic robots.
- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (10.1 million, 4.2/10) saw a 45% decline from Sunday’s audience.
- The Rules of Engagement* (8.5 million, 2.7/6) was slightly up from last week.
- Notes from the Underbelly (4.8 million, 1.7/4) didn’t deliver spectacular news.
- Both Girlfriends* (1.32 million, 0.6/1) and The Game* (1.62 million, 0.7/2) remained fairly steady.
10pm
- About 14.7 million watched David Caruso and the showgirl on CSI: Miami (4.2/11 in 18-49).
- Medium (9.5 million, 3.3/9) was basically even with last Monday.
- About 4.9 million traveled down October Road (2.0/5).
